CHOOSING your wedding venue is usually the first big decision of your weddingpla­nning journey.

The space you choose will impact every aspect of your day, not to mention those allimporta­nt photos.

Here are Dunedin Venues’ top tips to consider when choosing your venue:

Location: Consider whether all your guests can easily get to the venue. The Dunedin Centre is right in the heart of Dunedin, meaning locals don’t have far to travel, and it’s within walking distance of several hotels for any outoftown guests.

Space and capacity: Consider the size of your invite list and make sure your space is big enough (with a little wiggle room), but not too big. If outdoors, make sure the space has a wetweather backup. Whether your guest list is 50 or 500, the Dunedin Centre has a range of spaces to suit. The

rooftop terrace is a beautiful spot to say your vows, or celebrate your new marriage with canape´s and drinks in front of Dunedin’s incredible St Paul’s Cathedral. It also has an indoor area to host your guests if the weather isn’t as beautiful!

Think about what’s included: Although an allinclusi­ve package may seem more expensive at first, it can work out to be more costeffect­ive. For example, not having to hire furniture, linen, cutlery, or a PA system can reduce the cost of your day, and take away a lot of stress. At the Dunedin Centre, they offer a fabulous package that incorporat­es all the key elements to create your perfect wedding. There are plenty of ways to personalis­e your day, and they are there to make it happen. Your dedicated wedding coordinato­r will be on hand in the leadup to your wedding, as well as throughout

the event itself, to ensure your wedding is exactly how you want it.
